Strategic Plan

Long-term institutional goals, set objectives within the context of the College's mission and purpose, guide the planning process. Strategic plans generally forecast five-year periods, while institutional objectives are identified, implemented, and evaluated annually. The President of the College submits a comprehensive annual report to the Board of Trustees at the beginning of each calendar year.
